Tim Cain’s storied career includes a bunch of what are likely some of your favourite RPGs, including the first two Fallouts and Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines. Some of the games he worked on became huge mainstream successes, while others—particularly the games developed by his RPG studio, Troika—became cult classics. And people are always asking…
Grand Theft Auto 6 didn’t get a PC release date along with its trailer. Historical precedent isn’t promising either, since Red Dead Redemption 2’s port took 13 months to make the jump, while GTA 5 took a whopping 19. At the time of writing, though, GTA 5 is number 10 on the top sellers list…
I usually expect blank stares when I wax nostalgic about The Guild 2, a rough diamond that’s part management game, part life sim, part RPG. It’s the kind of game that does well in central Europe but not remotely as well elsewhere. Your classic eurojank romp: big on ambition, not so much on optimisation or…
Brick by brick. After last week’s reveal, LEGO and Nintendo have unveiled all five sets coming in the Animal Cross X LEGO collaboration, which we now know launches in March 2024. At least that saves the bank balance during the holidays! All five sets are available to wishlist now on LEGO’s website, and we’ve even…
While the metroidvania inclined celebrate the release of a long-awaited bug game, Helldivers 2’s stalwart protectors of freedom are hard at work ensuring no bugs will know another day of peace. This week, the Into the Unjust update kicked off a new offensive into Terminid strongholds, a directive that’s proving tougher than expected. A new…
In what feels like a common occurrence these days, some new DLC for a game came out and was quickly followed up with an apology from the developer. Paradox did it earlier this week for Crusader Kings 3, and now it’s Funcom’s turn with Dune: Awakening, which just released its first post-launch DLC, Lost Harvest….
Every great adventure is made up of legendary tales. Uncharted: The Nathan Drake Collection packs three thrilling adventures into one amazing collection. Nathan Drake has grown from man to legend as his story permeated our studio DNA and PlayStation lore. Here’s a glimpse of that transformation. The exchange seen here between Sully and Drake is…
Quick, name the biggest videogame launch of all time. Minecraft? Black Ops? One of them there Mario Karts? Wrong answers, all. It’s obviously Grand Theft Auto 6. What do you mean it’s not out yet? What’s that got to do with anything? That’s what Rockstar thinks, anyway. The studio’s been spotted (by The GTA Base…
Even after a couple of hours with Full Metal Schoolgirl, I’m not entirely sure what it wants to be: a shooter, a roguelite, a campy yet lewd robo-corpo hack-and-slash? It’s a little bit of everything, and doesn’t particularly excel in any aspect. Yet I’m weirdly endeared to its bizarre late 2000s jankiness. It reeks of…
Ordinarily, a scientific article entitled “cellular functions of spermatogonial stem cells in relation to JAK/STAT signaling pathway” would, at best, not gather a huge readership. However, when the article in question is furnished with clearly AI-generated imagery, one of which features a rat with a quite frankly astonishingly large set of genitals, well, that’ll do…
